March is that sweet spot where winter is still fully in its element, but the days are longer, the sun is brighter and with fewer crowds, the pace feels a little more relaxed. It’s the kind of month where you can ski fresh snow in the morning, take your time over lunch, and still have plenty of daylight left for an afternoon snowshoe or a scenic stroll.
Our Hello Spring! offer is the perfect excuse to start planning your next Lake Louise getaway. From March 5, 2026, to May 31, 2026, enjoy 30% off when you stay three or more nights! Here are a few ways to create the ultimate mountain-style spring break itinerary.
Ski or Snowboard Lake Louise Ski Resort
March is prime time for skiing at Lake Louise Ski Resort. With incredible views, reliable snow, and longer daylight hours, it’s easy to fit in full days on the mountain without feeling rushed. The resort has a little bit of everything: wide groomed runs, challenging terrain, and some of the most scenic ski views in Canada, perfect for skiers of all skill levels. As a bonus, the sun sticks around a bit longer, so you can actually enjoy those mid-day breaks without feeling like you’re losing your whole afternoon.
Try Snowshoeing for a Quieter Adventure
For those looking for adventure that doesn’t involve chairlifts and ski boots, snowshoeing is one of the best ways to experience Lake Louise in a slower, more peaceful way. March conditions are ideal because the snow is still deep and beautiful, but the weather is often milder, making it more comfortable for longer outings. A snowshoe trail is where you really get to feel how calm the Rockies can be. It’s quiet, scenic, and it’s the kind of activity that makes you forget your phone exists.
Embrace the Cozy Après Moment
Spring break doesn’t have to mean constant activity. Sometimes the best part is that “reset” feeling. This is where your Lake Louise Inn stay becomes part of the experience, not just the place you sleep.
Our favourite ways to unwind at the hotel:
- Enjoy a slow morning with coffee on your balcony
- Soothe sore muscles in our hot tub
- Connect over a board game in Explorer’s Lounge
- Savour a laid-back dinner at Timberwolf Pizza & Pasta Café
- Warm up at Après Ski in our Gazebo with complimentary hot chocolate & s’mores
The Best Part About March? It Still Feels Like Winter
